Matthew Williamson Collaborates With Ballantyne

MATTHEW WILLIAMSON has partnered with heritage knitwear brand Ballantyne Cashmere to create a capsule collection. The one-off collaboration will feature styles for both men and women.

Produced in Italy and Scotland - and inspired by "British heritage" - the range will be unveiled for the first time in February during Milan Fashion Week.

"It was a privilege to work with Ballantyne, an iconic brand possessing such a rich British heritage," said Williamson. "Ballantyne has a great appreciation of style and craftsmanship which truly complements the Matthew Williamson brand."

While very few details of the collection have been released, a preview sketch suggests that we're to expect plenty of Williamson's signature use of bright colour and prints.

"We are thrilled with the choice of Matthew Williamson as creative director of this capsule collection," said Franco Natalucci, CEO of Ballantyne Cashmere. "In addition to our British roots, both brands share a genuine love of quality and luxury workmanship."

The Matthew Williamson for Ballantyne Cashmere autumn/winter 2013-14 collection will be available to buy from July.
